Ever since the advent of the nuclear bomb—and the subsequent rise of political correctness—it’s been devilishly difficult to ID an enemy that you can kill with impunity. Hence the rise of alien and monster movies in the 50’s (and their ongoing presence in pop culture). In the 60’s and 70’s, Italian American lobby groups took the spite right out of mob movies. (Lest we forget the Corleone family were the heros of the Godfather series.) With the fall of South Africa’s apartheid regime, the last remaining PC-compatible baddie disappeared. So . . . zombies. The undead satisfy a basic human need for unreserved violence. But c’mon. Zombie-marking cheap shit is one thing (i.e. “fun”). Sullying SIG’s good name with zombification is, at best, post-modern irony. At worst, it’s tacky, stupid and immature. Now get offa my lawn.
